Well, if you actually read the article then you would see that the claim "the UK is 5 times more violent" isn't actually true. The numbers are played with to mislead. But the fact that the US has 5 times the population than the UK, obviously our crime rate will be higher.

Yeah but is that per 100,000 "good" people or per 100,000 "bad people" or a mix of the two? Not to mention, how much of it is from non-citizens?
Are you trying to wind me up, or are you serious? Nobody said the UK has a higher violent crime rate than the UK anyway. The article is totally irrelevant, so please don't dissemble and make out there's some amazing insight here.
You do understand what ******* RATE means?
Heeeeeelllllllllpppppppppp! Lololol
Mexicans obviously. You better get building a fuck off big wall.
if there is 1 criminal in every 1000 we have higher population we have more criminals
I'm going to assume that you are having a laugh at my expense.
The price of FREEDOM - I guess

Or, maybe we should just have the innocent, law abiding citizens, who don't carry firearms, to just yell
That should scare the badguys with AR 15s, right?That is interesting. What stopped me was the capital punishment - ranks UK first with the US, but we haven't had an execution for over 50 years and it is banned in the UK.For those interested ... the per capita crime rates of UK vs USA ...

I do wonder about the gathering of some stats - obviously, they can look worse if law enforcement are doing their jobs well or effectively.
Cheers and please don't think I hate America. I just like a robust exchange of views on issues that interest me.
I believe you can pass a mental health check and still ******* if you have a gun.
Also, what happens to guns in the event of people's deaths? Are they reclaimed by the government?
Guns involved in crimes are usually destroyed once they're no longer needed as evidence.
No, I mean what happens if you are licensed to carry/own a gun and you die of natural causes? Is the gun claimed by the govt since you are now dead? Or does someone else simply take ownership?
well that still means it goes to someone who never had a background check...…..the whacky nephew!
